great, I hope you will enjoy this piece of history
Do you plan to at least respond to requests for escrow given you have no known reputation on this forum?
If you do have trades you've done please link us to the proof so we can verify. Thanks.
I've been in contact with several people regarding the group buys and escrow
This presently presents logistical problems as this particular forum's version of trust wasn't considered by my team (but still wouldn't change the logistical problem even if we had considered it, the distribution model would have been concluded unviable and we wouldn't have pursued the project!). So it depends on the size of the buys and the need for it, as the books are selling as is using the way we intended for them to be sold.
This may be something we consider down the line (in coordination with our publisher's warehousing, printing and shipping cost demands) if it is a substantial number of copies - shipping many copies to one person instead of many copies to many people.
People interested in the book should buy it through the website. People that want to buy the book in different quantities need to contact me via PM or email.
Is it possible that you can post a plain picture of the finished book - just to see that the cake real?

But hopefully we'll see another cool book in the community with this project.
